These products are not hazardous as defined in 29CFR Potential Health Hazards: Skin Eyes Inhalation Not a primary irritant. Molten wax will cause burns upon contact. Molten wax fumes may be slightly irritating to eyes. Dust particles may cause burns upon contact. Molten wax fumes may cause mild respiratory irritation. Powder may cause minor nuisance irritation. Exposure limit for total product (threshold limit value): Page 1 of 7 Revised January 03, 2011

2 Ingestion Symptoms OSHA regulation 29 CFR recommended by ACGIH 5 mgms/m 3 (respirable dust) 10 mgms/m 3 (total dust) No known effects. Products have low toxicity (acute oral > 2500 mg/kg). Mild irritation as noted above. SECTION 4: First Aid Measures Skin Contact Eye Contact Inhalation Ingestion Chronic Health If burned by hot product, obtain medical attention immediately. In the event of skin contact with product under other conditions, wash thoroughly with soap and water. Removal of product from skin may be aided by use of waterless hand cleaner. If hot product splashes into eyes, flush immediately with clear cold water. Contact physician immediately. If overcome by fumes, immediately remove from exposure and call a physician. If breathing is irregular or has stopped, start resuscitation. Adminster oxygen if available. Product are not acutely toxic and in any case ingestion is unlikely to occur. If a product is ingested, follow appropriate action as when any foreign object is swallowed. No know chronic health effects. SECTION 5: Firefighting Measures NFPA: Health 0, Fire 1, Reactivity 0 Flammability Properties Flammability Classification: Combustible solid Flash Point: >450 o F Method: ASTM D-92 Auto Ignition Temperature: Not known Flammability Limits Upper: Lower: Extinguishing Media Use carbon monoxide, dry chemical or fine water spray. Avoid direct stream of water as product will float and can re-ignite on the surface of the water stream. Page 2 of 7 Revised January 03, 2011

3 Firefighting Instructions Material will not burn unless preheated. Do not enter confined fire space without full bunker gear (helmet with face shield, bunker coats, gloves and rubber boots), including a positive pressure NIOSH approved self-contained breathing apparatus. Cool fire exposed containers with water. In powder form, static electricity may lead to explosions. See NFPA Bulletin 654. Take precaution as material may cause floors and stairs to become slippery. SECTION 6: Accidental Release Measures Release Response: Use good housekeeping practices since spilled material may be a slipping hazard. When dealing with powdered grade, keep away from heat, flame, and remove ignition sources. Collect material in a drum (may be fiberboard) or carbon using care to scatter as little dust as possible. May burn although not readily ignitable. Use cautions judgment when cleaning up large molten spills. With small molten spills wear respirator and protective clothing as appropriate. Shut off source of leak if safe to do so. Dike and contain. Allow wax to cool and remove as solid. SECTION 7: Handling and Storage Handling: Avoid breathing fumes from heating process. Avoid spillage as floors can become slippery. Storage: Avoid excessive heat and strong oxidizing agents. Use adequate ventilation during heating process or if dusty conditions occur during handling of powered material. For storage and ordinary handling, general ventilation is adequate. SECTION 8: Exposure Control and Personal Protection Engineering Controls: Use adequate ventilation during heating process, or if dusty conditions occur during handling of powdered material. For storage and ordinary handling, general ventilation is adequate. Personal Protection: Skin Protection: Eye Protection: Wear heat protective gloves and long sleeve clothing if there is potential for contact with heated materials. Wear safety glasses as minimum protection. Consult you standard operating Page 3 of 7 Revised January 03, 2011

4 procedures or safety professional for advice. Use protective eye and face devices that comply ANSI Z Respiratory: Use a NIOSH approved dust respirator, if dusty conditions prevail. Use an organic vapor respirator when melting or conveying product. SECTION 9: Physical and Chemical Properties Appearance: Odor: White pastilles, flakes, or powder Typical mild waxy odor Density: Water Solubility: ph: Boiling Point: Melting Point: Vapor Pressure: Vapor Density: Evaporation Rate: Negligible 180 o -260 o F SECTION 10: Stability and Reactivity Chemical Stability: This product is stable at normal conditions. Conditions to Avoid: Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents Incompatible With: Strong oxidizing agents. Hazardous Products Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and combustible gases may be Of Decomposition: generated. Hazardous Polymerization: Reaction with Air: Will not occur. Does not react with air or other common materials. Page 4 of 7 Revised January 03, 2011

5 SECTION 11: Toxicological Information Skin Effects: No skin effects are expected from polymer contact. Oral Effects: Acute oral toxicity in rats: LD50>2500 mg/kg SECTION 12: Ecological Information Ecotoxicity: Ecotoxicity is expected to be low based on the low water solubility of the product. Environmental Fate: No information found in our selected references. Bioaccumulation: Not expected to occur. SECTION 13: Disposal Considerations RCRA: The unused product is not a RCRA hazardous waste if discarded. Products are organic in nature and not biodegradable. Discard unused material as non-hazardous organic solid waste. Dispose of product in an appropriate facility in compliance with local state and federal regulations.
